iPhone X

Our vision has always been to create an iPhone that is entirely screen. One so immersive the device itself disappears into the experience. And so intelligent it can respond to a tap, your voice, and even a glance. With iPhone X, that vision is now a reality. Say hello to the future.

Design and Display

It’s all screen.

With iPhone X, the device is the display. An all-new 5.8-inch Super Retina screen fills the hand and dazzles the eyes.1

Innovative Technology

The display employs new techniques and technology to precisely follow the curves of the design, all the way to the elegantly rounded corners.

OLED Designed for iPhone X

The first OLED screen that rises to the standards of iPhone, with accurate, stunning colours, true blacks, high brightness, and a 1,000,000 to 1 contrast ratio.

TrueDepth Camera

A tiny space houses some of the most sophisticated technology we’ve ever developed, including the cameras and sensors that enable Face ID.

All-New Design

The most durable glass ever in an iPhone, front and back. Surgical‑grade stainless steel. Wireless charging. Water and dust resistance.2

Intuitive Gestures

Familiar gestures make navigation natural and intuitive. Instead of pressing a button, a single swipe takes you home from anywhere.

Design and Display

How do you create a deeply intelligent device whose enclosure and display are a single, uninterrupted element? That’s the goal we first set ourselves with the original iPhone. With iPhone X, we’ve achieved it.

The purest expression of iPhone.

To create a continuous surface, with nothing to get in the way of your experience, we replaced the Home button with new yet familiar ways to navigate.

Introducing Super Retina. Beauty through engineering.

The OLED panel in the Super Retina HD display isn’t just any OLED. It’s custom built to our exacting standards, allowing for an HDR display with a 1,000,000 to 1 contrast ratio, high resolution and brightness, wide colour support and industry-leading colour accuracy.

Brilliance to the edges.

Using innovative folding and circuit stacking technology, the OLED panel follows the curves of the device into the furthest reaches of the corners. Then it uses a process called subpixel anti-aliasing to tune individual pixels for smooth, distortion-free edges.

Our best colour accuracy ever.

The advanced colour management system in the Super Retina HD display is the best in the smartphone industry. Which means that whatever colour mode your content uses — P3, sRGB — iPhone X automatically displays in that format. So the colours you see are the colours the director or designer intended.

True Tone.For a more comfortable viewing experience.

True Tone technology uses an advanced six-channel ambient light sensor to subtly adjust the white balance onscreen to match the colour temperature of the light around you. So images on the display look as natural as on a printed page, reducing eye strain.

HDR.Now showing for the first time on iPhone.

iPhone X is a true High Dynamic Range (HDR) display. You can watch films and TV programmes in Dolby Vision and HDR10. Your HDR photos will look even more amazing. And you’ll be able to watch HDR titles from iTunes, Netflix and more.3

The most durable glass ever in a smartphone.

The front and back are all glass — the most durable we’ve ever made, with a strengthening layer that’s 50 per cent deeper. A seven-layer ink process allows for precise hues and opacity, and a reflective optical layer enhances the colours. And an oleophobic coating lets you easily wipe off smudges and fingerprints.

Wireless charging for a wireless world.

We’ve always intended iPhone to be a truly wireless device, free from charging cables and headphone cords. With a glass back and an embedded wireless charging system, iPhone X is designed for a wireless future.4

Surgical‑grade stainless steel.

The stainless steel band that wraps around and reinforces iPhone X is a special Apple-designed alloy that’s both durable and more pure, and it polishes beautifully. For the space grey finish, we use a process called physical vapour deposition to precisely match the colour of the stainless steel band to that of the glass.

Resists water, splashes and dust.

iPhone X is precision-engineered at the microscopic level to protect against water, splashes and dust.2

Face ID

A revolution in recognition.

Secure Authentication

Your face is now your password. Face ID is a secure and private new way to unlock, authenticate and pay.

Facial Mapping

Face ID is enabled by the TrueDepth camera and is simple to set up. It projects and analyses more than 30,000 invisible dots to create a precise depth map of your face.

Apple Pay

Face ID is so secure you can use it with Apple Pay. And check out with just a glance.

Face ID

What could be more natural than a touch? A look. That was the insight behind Face ID, a powerful and secure authentication system that’s even more convenient than Touch ID. It makes unlocking and paying fast, easy and intuitive.

The incredible technology behind incredible simplicity.

The TrueDepth camera system is composed of multiple innovative technologies. Working together in real time, they use a detailed depth map of your face to recognise you in an instant.

Flood Illuminator

Your face is your secure password.

With Face ID, iPhone X unlocks only when you’re looking at it. It’s also designed to protect against spoofing by photos and masks. Your Face ID information is encrypted and protected by the Secure Enclave. And it’s private — your data doesn’t leave your device and is never backed up to iCloud or anywhere else.

Once it knows you, it knows you.

Face ID uses advanced machine learning to recognise changes in your appearance. Wear a hat. Grow a beard. Put on glasses. You can even use Face ID with many types of sunglasses. So even if your friends don’t recognise you, Face ID will.

So smart it only works when you want it to.

For additional security, Face ID is attention aware, meaning it unlocks your iPhone X only when you look towards the device with your eyes open. That means Face ID can also reveal notifications and messages, keep the screen lit when you’re reading, or lower the volume of an alarm or ringer.

TrueDepth Camera

How much innovative thinking can you fit into a tiny space? Quite a lot, it turns out. The TrueDepth camera system houses sophisticated cameras and sensors for new capabilities only possible with iPhone X.

Tremendous innovation in a minuscule space.

An intricate system of powerful technologies work with A11 Bionic to enable Face ID, selfies with Portrait mode, and Animoji.

Face ID.Your face is your secure password.

The revolutionary authentication system in iPhone X begins with data captured by the TrueDepth camera. Sensors read the unique geometry of your face and compare it to information protected by the Secure Enclave of the A11 Bionic chip. If there’s a match, iPhone X unlocks.

Portrait mode.For selfies with real depth.

Shoot selfies with a depth-of-field effect that puts your face in sharp focus against an artfully blurred background. The TrueDepth camera, along with the A11 Bionic chip, captures the photo and creates this effect with the tap of a finger.

Portrait Lighting.For selfies with studio effects.

Inspired by extensive research into the art and science of portraiture, all-new Portrait Lighting uses sophisticated algorithms to calculate how your facial features interact with light. Then it uses that data to create stunning lighting effects.

Natural Light

Your face in sharp focus against a blurred background.

Studio Light

A clean look with your face brightly lit.

Contour Light

Dramatic shadows with highlights and lowlights.

Stage Light

Your face spotlit against a deep black background.

Stage Light Mono

Like Stage, but in classic black and white.

Animoji.A new way to get into character.

Admit it. You’ve always wanted to be a unicorn. Working with the A11 Bionic chip, the TrueDepth camera captures and analyses more than 50 different muscle movements, then mirrors your expressions in any of 16 different Animoji.

Share the fun.

Animoji include your voice, and you can share your videos within Messages.

Clips.Create videos that take you to new worlds.

Clips is a free app that lets you make fun, shareable videos with text, graphics, effects and more. Selfie Scenes on iPhone X make Clips even more fun, using the TrueDepth camera to place you in 360‑degree animated landscapes, abstract art, and even on board the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Dual 12MP Cameras

The art of photography. Simplified.

Improved Cameras

A larger and faster 12MP sensor. A new colour filter. Deeper pixels. And a new telephoto camera with OIS.

Both rear cameras have optical image stabilisation and fast lenses for outstanding photos and videos even in low light.

Optical Zoom

The wide-angle and telephoto cameras on iPhone X enable optical zoom, as well as digital zoom of up to 10x for photos and 6x for videos.

Dual OIS.For images that shine in low light.

One of the hardest things in photography is getting great photos and videos in low light. Optical image stabilisation in both rear cameras makes it effortless. So when the day ends, your creativity is just beginning.

New filters.Better flash. More fun.

From the moment you capture a photo to your final edit, iPhone X makes it even easier to create spectacular shots. And next-generation HEIF compression technology lets you take new photos with the same quality as before at half the file size. So snap away.

Live Photo Effects and New Filters

Transform a Live Photo you love into a fun video loop. Make it bounce back and forth. Turn fireworks into bright streaks across the sky with a beautiful long-exposure effect. And apply new filters for more natural skin tones or to add classic looks to portraiture.

Quad-LED True Tone Flash with Slow Sync

Slow sync flash combines a slow shutter speed with a short strobe pulse. It’s useful in low light when you want a brighter foreground subject with a properly exposed background. And the Quad-LED True Tone flash delivers illumination that’s up to two times more uniform, helping to reduce hot spots.

Videos that belong on the big screen.

Whether you’re a proud parent, a film student or a working director, iPhone X lets you shoot phenomenal movies. An Apple-designed video encoder performs real-time image processing for optimal quality. And with HEVC compression, you’ll get the same video quality as before at half the file size.

4K videoup to 60 fps

Slo-mo1080p up to 240 fps

Time-lapsevideo

Steadier videos.

Advanced video stabilisation uses a new, larger sensor and the powerful ISP to stabilise everything you’re shooting. And optical image stabilisation is designed to reduce motion blur and handshake in low‑light videos. So your movies look steady even if your hand isn’t.

Photos taken with iPhone X.

We asked amateur and professional photographers around the world to take iPhone X and shoot what inspires them. The images they captured are beautiful examples of what the cameras on iPhone X can do.
